Roger and Doris Miller's Unexpected Medical Costs

Roger Miller Sr was on the trip of a lifetime with his wife Doris, three of their adult children, and the spouses of their children - adventuring on an Alaskan and Canadian cruise - when he was unexpectedly hit with COVID. What he originally thought was a cold from the change in weather and environment became a horrible case of COVID pneumonia that was beyond the capabilities of the cruise ship's infirmary. Roger was moved to a hospital in Canada for care - and, although the country has wide accessibility to healthcare and prescriptions, being a non-resident has high-cost implications. The hospital stay alone is approximately $12,000 per day. Any support that friends and family can provide toward making his medical expenses more manageable is appreciated very much - as are your prayers!

Update: As of the evening of Aug 20, more unexpected news was delivered by one of Roger and Doris’ children: Doris has now been admitted to the Canadian ER for similar medical complications alongside her husband, Roger. With both of them admitted into an out-of-country medical facility, the costs are rising. We have updated our fundraising goal to make a larger impact since the costs have risen significantly with them both hospitalized at this point.

Please continue to share this fundraiser, donate when possible, and pray continuously! Thank you to all of those who have already donated to help with these unexpected costs and to help bring them both home to Tennessee!
